Anyway the copy was good and I enjoyed how Rocky has a proper ending to parts of the character.
The film is more storyline based with a fight at the end which is more like watching a friday fright night bout with Teddy Atlas. Teddy Atlas was not in the film I was giving an example.
Adrian is dead. Paulie loses his job. Rocky opens a restuarant and wants one last fight with the Heavyweight champ (Antonio Traver who is a light-heavy). Rocky loses a split decision, but the crowd love him. He goes back to his normal life I guess.
I rate it 9/10 for entertainment. 1/10 In terms of the focus on boxing. What does the forum here think?

it was a great movie..in line with Rocky I and II....I thought the story it told was moving...as for the boxing side it was 7/10 for me...I loved the training montage and the fight itself...9/10 for the story line...I would definitely rate this as a must see for any fight fan!!!!
It feels good to be back home.
